This week in Come Follow Me we are discussing Section 45 of the Doctrine and Covenants. This section came in 1831, during a time when the church was still very new and there were many falsehoods being spread. This section, its revealed doctrines, and promised blessings were a balm to many saints. I think it is also interesting to note here that the next day after this revelation was given, Joseph Smith would begin his translation of the New Testament.  Today I’ll talk about Christ as advocate, ministering, the ten virgins, and finish with a song. Not me singing, but just talking about one.
